Would there be a certain enmity between Arielle Dombasle and Laurent Ruquier? No way ! But on May 28, 2022, the show’s host We are live reframed Bernard Henri Levy’s wife with a lot of humor on the set of France 2. Broadcast following the awards and closing ceremony of the 75th Cannes Film Festival, the program therefore naturally began with the Palme d’Or ( awarded this year to Triangle of Sadness (No filter) of Ruben Ostlund) and the guests indicated if they had had the chance to walk the steps of the famous red carpet on the Croisette. Asked by Léa Salamé’s sidekick who was trying to find out if she had been to the Palais des Festivals, Arielle Dombasle replied: “No. When you don’t have a movie, I find that it’s less exciting all the same“.
Mocking and probably finding the former actress a little disdainful, Laurent Ruquier explained: “She says that because she was selected at the time with Opium, did he jokein reference to the 2013 feature film she directed, which features Grégoire Colin, Samuel Mercer and Niels Schneider…” before adding: “Well, in short, she’s going crazy“. A joke to which Arielle Dombasle did not wish to respond, contenting herself simply with sketching a pinched smile on her face. One more joke for the host, who is used to rooming the beautiful actress and singer, particularly on his radio show The Big Heads.
A little later in the evening, the actress of the film An Indian in the city held to sing live Fever by Peggy Lee, cover taken from her next album entitled Iconics and which is scheduled for release in the fall. A remarkable bold performance.
